Bloodgrass looks fantastic as an edging plant or massed as a ground cover

so a layer of mulch is beneficial

you should always promptly remove any non-variegated leaves that may appear

A must-have if you are wanting to attract bees and butterflies to your garden

Abutilon | Boule de Neige Edith Holden and the Philip Johnson GlassThis lovely Abutilon or Chinese Lantern translated means bowl of snow. A hardy variety that grows well in full sun or partial shade, but in hotter areas will appreciate afternoon shade. This is an evergreen shrub that will flower prolifically from spring to autumn and in some areas throughout the year.
